What to Know

Critics Consensus

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II is Wonder Man, turning in a sly performance alongside an equally wonderful Ben Kingsley in this low-stakes superhero fare that boasts high-hearted personal drama as its winning factor.

Amber Dowling Globe and Mail 3d
The actors’ chemistry and undeniable bromance is a great reason to watch, but this is also an entertaining and low-stakes story that doesn’t require mass MCU viewing or knowledge to fully enjoy. Go to Full Review Peter Travers The Travers Take 3d
3/4
It’s a different kind of Marvel epic. Special effects take a backseat to laughs as Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Sir Ben Kingsley spoof egomaniac actors who learn it’s better to stop chasing fame and be in it for the love of the game. Go to Full Review Nadira Goffe Slate 4d
Despite it getting occasionally bogged down, Wonder Man is a good show with a hero who is engaging to watch because he shows no interest in being one, and Mateen II is excellent in it. Go to Full Review Andre Meadows Black Nerd Comedy 14h
The acting in this is so good. Go to Full Review Sebastian Zavala Kahn No Es En Serie 15h
4/5
The ultimate proof that Marvel can do something different, something beyond a roller coaster experience (to paraphrase Scorsese), whenever they feel like it. [Full review in Spanish]. Go to Full Review Jean Henegan Pop Culture Maniacs 1d
4.3/5
Wonder Man was a quick, smart, incredibly well-acted, and very well-written ride. Even if you’ve succumbed to MCU fatigue, this one is worth your time. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jose D. @JcStudi0s 5h Refreshing, Something new See more Aaron M. @MovieFan75 5h Once you get past the first couple episodes it really comes into its own. I hope we see wonder man in avengers. See more Peter F @Pfit1990 5h I get the critique that it could have had a little more action, but I prefer suspense to action and this show had a suspenseful, slow building backstory and plot development that somehow breezes lightly through the episodes for easy watching on the power of the leads. See more Karen B. @Obsidian254 5h At first wasn't sure what to expect. Very good acting, look forward to more. See more Jade S @JadeWarlock 6h I persoanlly really loved it! I would not go in expecting another Disney+ Marvel show with an "epic final battle". No no no. This is not that. This is a MCU show that is character driven, that's about a struggling actor trying to make his break in hollywood, while also having to deal with the consequences of being a superpowered individual. It's fairly grounded, and the dynamic Yahya Abdul-Mateen II & Sir Ben Kingsley have is excellent. Never thought this awful twist character from Iron Man 3 would become such a well developed character in the MCU. Again don't go in expecting the same crap we've seen with plenty of the Disney+ shows. See more Mark J. @Jake7 6h Just a dry boring waste of time. I actually felt bad for the actors.
